Dr Primrose - A painting of a group of people in a park

Ford Madox Brown (1821-1893) was an English painter and designer associated with the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, a group of artists who sought to revive the principles of early Italian Renaissance art. Brown's work often depicted historical and literary subjects, as well as scenes from contemporary life. He was also known for his designs for stained glass windows, tapestries and furniture. Some of his most famous works include 'The Last of England', 'Work' and 'The Manchester Murals'. Brown was an important figure in the Victorian art world and his influence can be seen in the work of later artists such as Vincent van Gogh and Edward Burne-Jones.
